That’s wrong. Just look at him!” an incensed Romney told Matthew Friedemann, his close friend in the Stevens Hall dorm, according to Friedemann’s recollection. Mitt, the teenaged son of Michigan Gov. George Romney, kept complaining about Lauber’s look, Friedemann recalled.A few days later, Friedemann entered Stevens Hall off the school’s collegiate quad to find Romney marching out of his own room ahead of a prep school posse shouting about their plan to cut Lauber’s hair. Friedemann followed them to a nearby room where they came upon Lauber, tackled him and pinned him to the ground. As Lauber, his eyes filling with tears, screamed for help, Romney repeatedly clipped his hair with a pair of scissors.

According to Ann Romney, Mitt is still the “crazy” guy from high school who loves “playing jokes” on people. And according to his high school friend Gregg Dearth, Romney probably was merely acting “jokingly” when he bullied John Lauber.

Jokes really Ann? in kindergarden I assume Mitt was the kid who punched a girl he liked because he had problems expressing and processing that he liked her? if I were married to Mitt I would be worried about latent Homosexuality.
Not that there is anything wrong with that unless of course your married to Mitt being married to a latent Gay could cause problems in anyone’s marriage. Maybe you can ask Michelle Bachmann if her husband’s Pray Away the Gay Clinic has an opening?
Mitt’s not Gay it was a harmless Prank!!!
Really well in Literature Myth and the bible cutting people’s hair has sexual over tones.
In the Prose Edda, Sif is named as the mother of the goddess Þrúðr by Thor and of Ullr with a father whose name is not recorded. The Prose Edda also recounts that Sif once had her hair shorn by Loki, and that Thor forced Loki to have a golden headpiece made for Sif, resulting in not only Sif’s golden tresses but also five other objects for other gods.
Scholars have proposed that Sif’s hair may represent fields of golden wheat, that she may be associated with fertility, family, wedlock and/or that she is connected to rowan,

Much like Mitt being threatened by the Gay Loki claimed Sif was having an affair with him granted a straight affair but yes sexual desire led to the cutting of Sif’s hair.
, the rape of the locke Also shows in the real world that attacks on hair are of a sexual nature.
The poem satirizes a petty squabble by comparing it to the epic world of the gods. It was based on an incident recounted by Pope’s friend, John Caryll. Arabella Fermor and her suitor, Lord Petre, were both from aristocratic recusant Catholic families at a period in England when under such laws as the Test Act, all denominations except Anglicanism suffered legal restrictions and penalties (for example Petre could not take up his place in the House of Lords as a Catholic). Petre, lusting after Arabella, had cut off a lock of her hair without permission, and the consequent argument had created a breach between the two families. Pope, also a Catholic, wrote the poem at the request of friends in an attempt to “comically merge the two.”

Again we see this time in the real world sexual desire leads to an attack on hair.
Using her powers of seduction and deception, Delilah persistently wore down Samson with her repeated requests, until he finally divulged the crucial information. Having taken the Nazirite vow at birth, Samson had been set apart to God. As part of that vow, his hair was never to be cut. When Samson told Delilah that his strength would leave him if a razor were to be used on his head, she cunningly crafted her plan with the Philistine rulers.
While Samson slept on her lap, Delilah called in a co-conspirator to shave off the seven braids of his hair. Subdued and weak, Samson was captured.

In the Bible Delilah uses sexual seduction to find away to take away Samson’s strength healthy long hair I guess in myth can substitute for a Penis both are sources or signs of Male Virility.
Does anyone still doubt that Mitt’s forced haircut was motivated by Latent Homosexuality?
I believe Loki ended up getting his lips sewn shut by Thor at the end of the tale so he would not lie anymore.
Given Fox News and Rush’s recent troubles Loki’s er Mitt’s lips very well maybe sewn shut soon:)
Myths like History shows patterns that if they don’t repeat at least rhyme like Twain said.
Its funny when a Mexican from Public school with admitted grammar problems makes Freakin Obvious Literary, Norse Myth and Bible catches that tv talking heads who hate immigrants from Ivy league schools don’t catch. Well to be fair they are obvious to public school students:)
I really expected George Will to have caught at least one of these parallels. Now then just who says public schools suck and pay for private or corporate schools are better:?
